Remembrance Day
1 Corinthians 11:23-34
23For I received from the Lord what I also passed on to you: The Lord Jesus, on the night he was betrayed, took bread, 24and when he had given thanks, he broke it and said, "This is my body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of me." 25In the same way, after supper he took the cup, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood; do this, whenever you drink it, in remembrance of me." 26For whenever you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until he comes.
27Therefore, whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of sinning against the body and blood of the Lord. 28A man ought to examine himself before he eats of the bread and drinks of the cup. 29For anyone who eats and drinks without recognizing the body of the Lord eats and drinks judgment on himself. 30That is why many among you are weak and sick, and a number of you have fallen asleep. 31But if we judged ourselves, we would not come under judgment. 32When we are judged by the Lord, we are being disciplined so that we will not be condemned with the world.
33So then, my brothers, when you come together to eat, wait for each other. 34If anyone is hungry, he should eat at home, so that when you meet together it may not result in judgment.
And when I come I will give further directions.
Bee's Thoughts:
There are so many things stored in my 'RAM'... my childhood days, my encounters with people who have impacted my life (those who hurt me & those who loved me), etc. Some bring forth warm feelings in me, some make me cry when I recall. Very often, I hope I can't remember anything, I hope to have a memory loss...
But one thing that I have to remember is that Jesus has died on the cross for me. He will wipe away all my tears and give me a new body and new life one day. I have to remember that all I have today, I owe them to Him. This is something that keeps me going, when everyone else fail me.
Dear Lord,
Thank You for all that You have done for me. Thank You that this hope I have in You will come true one day. When I am discouraged or lose hope, please let me remember that You are always here with me.
In Jesus' Your name I thank You. Amen.
